The AIP movies have a certain quality about them that when you watch them, you get the feeling you're watching an AIP movie without having seen the logo at the beginning. Ditto for the New World Pictures. Lovely stories as always, and a nice balance of the personalities of the individual subjects.venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-779652600630328772013-05-01T11:24:55.020-07:002013-05-01T11:24:55.020-07:00Hi Pamela!

This first Arkoff encounter obviously meant a good deal to Barbara, because she described it to me on three separate occasions. Who could blame her? Personally, I'll never forget my first meeting with Roger Corman, which ended up as the introductory anecdote in my Corman biography. Then there was my LAST meeting with Roger . . . but that's another story . . .

You posted a spectacular series this month Ms. G - gained a goodly number of new followers - and made us Cormanies blissfully happy - is Disneyland in your future? ;)<br /><br />I've always enjoyed stories of Sam Arkoff - almost the prototype for the cigar chomping movie producer - the kind of guy who watches a rough cut of his new softcore T_A flick, then mutters around his stogie "Needs more t**s in it!" I love someone mistaking Mr. Corman for Mr. Arkoff - as they couldn't be much more different physically (at least I think they couldn't) - I've always pictured Mr. A as relatively short and blocky - compared to Mr. C's lanky and tall build...<br /><br />In any case - congratulations on completing the April 2013 A-Z Blogging Challenge! I hope you enjoyed it - and that you're already thinking about 2014's?Craig Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037542638067599437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070623657970000135.post-9447982280822999652013-04-30T14:43:31.235-07:002013-04-30T14:43:31.235-07:00Be my guest, Jeremy!
